NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM UNIV. OF CRETE
Project co funded by the DG Environment of the EU Grant Agreement No. 070401/2010/579066/SUB/C4
Why?• Seismic hazards, as well as volcanic eruptions are the most distractive natural disasters (ND),• Gained experience from many NDs have shown that Civil Protection was not prepared enough to palliate the emotional shock and burden that such events can cause to children
Whom?• It is primary addressed to children, including those with movement disorders, aiming to palliate the emotional burden and help them cope in case of a serious natural hazard,• Secondary, to teachers, parents and other civil protection operators
How?• by raising awareness of children,• by improving knowledge on earthquakes and volcanoes• by educating relative groups (children, teachers, parents etc.) on the best practices and state of the art responses
Project co funded by the DG Environment of the EU Grant Agreement No. 070401/2010/579066/SUB/C4
Objectives:
• to identify, share and implement best practices and methodologies gained from studies, previous EU projects and partners’ activities,
• to study and analyse the needs in each participating country,
• to develop and realize innovative initiatives and actions aiming to raise awareness and increase knowledge of pupils on earthquake and volcanic hazards, including those with movement disorders,
• to train teachers, parents or other relative groups to be able to contribute to children’s palliation,
• to constantly evaluate actions and outcomes of the project,
• to disseminate and share project’s results and outcomes to potential beneficiaries and broader audience on a constant base, and
• to build local networks of volunteers
